**Unicef UK is inviting the public to make a New Year resolution to support the 
charity in helping Syrian children during 2016. To make it it easy it is providing
a DIY video singing selfie with Unicef-blue lips!**

It has created a video of a blue-lipped mouth committing to the resolution. To take
part people simply have to download a free app available from [Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=mobi.bouncingball.unicef&utm_source=global_co&utm_medium=prtnr&utm_content=Mar2515&utm_campaign=PartBadge&pcampaignid=MKT-AC-global-none-all-co-pr-py-PartBadges-Oct1515-1)
or the [Apple App store](https://appsto.re/gb/S4WN_.i). Then they hold their phone
up to their mouth, press play on the app and let the phone sing along to the song
while they dance. They can then get a friend to film them, or film themselves with
their friends (a “mouth-mob”).

Unicef shares details on [how to put the singing mouth on your mouth](http://resolution.unicef.or­g.uk/unicef-new-years-resolution.html).

When sharing the resolution with the hashtag **#HappyBlueYear** Unicef invites participants
to text NYE to 70060 to donate £3, and nominate their friends to join in when posting
the video via social media.

Donations made to the campaign will be doubled by the UK government.
